TCO Certified
TCO Certified is the world’s leading sustainability label for IT products, which takes into account a broad range of social and environmental factors in the lifecycle of a product.
It was initially created by the Swedish Confederation of Professional Employees (TCO) to guarantee that computer products purchased by employers maintain ecological standards and were sufficiently ergonomic to prevent long term health issues for users.
For a product to be awarded the TCO Certified label, it must meet numerous criteria relating to both the design and manufacture including criteria on worker’s rights, conflict minerals, hazardous chemicals, user health and safety, durability, and recyclability.
